 Aeronautical composite applications

• General topics

- wide applications of polymer composites

- advantages compared to metals:> weight reduction due to high specific strength and stiffness> less weight results in higher performance and lower

operational costs

> less single parts due to integral design which results in lessassemblage costs

> longer life time due to high fatigue performance> realisation of high quality aerodynamic surfaces

- structural design comprise monolithic stringer stiffened andsandwich shells andpanels, sandwich design with foam cores and paper oraluminium honeycombs

Composite Propellers

• application of glass and carbon hybrids

with high performance epoxy matrix

• share of glass and carbon in hybrids

controls the torsion frequency of the

propeller blade

• less weight and high design flexibility

• high fatigue performance regarding the

high vibration loading

• environmental resistance (sand, oil, salt

water)

• good impact resistance (hybrids!) anddamage tolerance

• low repair costPropeller for regional aircraft SAAB 2000

Composite space applications

• structures, antennas, and mirrors with low or zero thermal

expansion under changing sun radiation condit ions

• very stiff and extreme light structures (ultra high modulus

(UHM) graphite fibres)

CFRP antenna structure for space appl ications

• CFRP tubes with rovings, fabrics or

braidings and epoxy matrix

• filament winding, fabric winding on

mandrel, pultrusion

• major advantages:

- less weight

- very stiff with UHM graphite fibres

- high Eigenfrequency provides good

positioning accuracy

- no thermal strains or deformations
